Describe the bug
I installed kitty a few days ago via the Fedora store. I set it up with zsh, oh-my-zsh and powerlevel10k. Everything worked fine so far. I used kitty to work with node, rails and go. No problems. Today when I wanted to start kitty, the terminal window pops up shortly and immediately crashes. I uninstalled kitty via the store and installed again via shell command from the website.
When I started via command line I got the same behavior as before, with the error message: [144 22:29:20.318282] [glfw error 65544]: Wayland: fatal display error: Broken pipe
I had reinstalled my laptop last Saturday and a few days before I had already encountered the same behavior, also on Fedora 36.
Before I had kitty installed for several weeks, with no issues at all.
I got kitty working again by deleting the kitty folder from ~/.cache. I did try to remove the files contained in the directory one by one but kitty kept crashing. Only after I removed the whole folder did it start up again. This is how I got the environment details below.
To Reproduce
I don't know how to reproduce the behaviour definitely
